Louis-François Bouchard
About this episode

Join us this week for a fascinating conversation on the What’s AI podcast, where Yotam Azriel, co-founder of TensorLeap, shares his fascinating journey, insights, and vision for the future of Explainable AI. Discover what the power of passion, curiosity, and focus can accomplish! Yes, I didn’t mention school or university voluntarily, as Yotam is a successful data scientist… without any formal university degree!

08:23 So would you recommend having some sort of incentive to learn?

10:05 Why do you assume you’re not cut off for academia if you like writing and reading papers?

15:00 What is Tensorleap and what do you do there?

21:28 What is Explainability AI and please give an example of a technique?

27:35 Could you give an example of how an explainability AI technique could help improve or understand the SAM model?

31:39 Would the same explainability AI technique work for different architectures?

36:30 Can we do anything to understand the results of the model better when we work with pre-trained models?

40:20 What are the basics for someone new to the field who wants to get into explainability AI and use it to better understand their model and its results?

42:48 Should everyone creating AI models also be familiar with explainability and be able to understand the decisions of the models they create?

45:21 If the model's explanation is right or not you might need an expert in the specific field?

52:20 Is there a way to better understand models that are used through API’s, their decisions and why they answer the way they did?

56:15 Is the ultimate goal for explainability AI to do anything it can to understand the AI model?

58:50 Did you search into neurosciences and try to implement some of their ideas on artificial networks and vice versa?

01:01:20 How do you see the explainability AI field in 5 years?

01:03:27 What are the possible risks with explainability AI?

01:04:56 Who should use Tensorleap and why?
